Debate

Producer Responsibility Obligations (Packaging and Packaging Waste) Regulations 2024

Contribution

I am conscious that local authorities are chronically underfunded. The move to EPR will boost their coffers but, with no KPIs on recycling linked to the fees received, this money will not necessarily be used to improve kerb-side collections but might go into the social care budget desert. Can the Minister comment on this?
